Alverde baked eye shadow EOTDs


I bought some Alverde baked eyeshadow solos from Germany too. These are pigmented and shimmery (Alverde palettes are usually mattes). These were nice to use and quite cheap (about 3-4€), I still probably won't buy more of these next time, see the last picture in this post...

Ostin muutamia Alverden Baked-luomivrinappeja Saksasta. Oikein pigmenttisiltä tuntuvat ja ovat kauniin hohtavia (Alverden paletit ovat yleensä mattoja). Oikein kivoja kyllä nämäkin ja hinta oli edullinen (3-4€). Tuskin ostan kuitenkaan näitä jatkossa, postauksen lopulta löytyy tuotteen huonompi puoli...

silky grey




shiny blue


golden chestnut


elegant beige


EOTD with Elegant beige & Golden Chestnut:





Elegant Beige & Golden Chestnut

And this is why I probably won't buy more of these... Nothing happened to this eyeshadow, it was stored in a box and I just suddenly noticed that it was in pieces. Not nice. I took the picture immediately, now it looks much worse.

Ja tässä syy siihen, miksi tuskin ostan näitä lisää... Luomivärille ei siis tapahtunut mitään, se oli kunnossa ja säilytyksessä laatikossa. Kun otin sen esiin, tuote oli palasina :-O Nyt on tosiaan vielä pahemmassa kunnossa, kuvan otin heti kun huomasin vian. Pikaisella googettelulla huomasin, etten ole ainoa jolle on käynyt näin.



I also want to show you this video of nordic summer & winter, quite different I'd say ;) I LOVE summer!

    love the video! The summer/winter sunlight hours difference look similar to here in Scotland, but you have much clearer skies! :)

    I don't see any sunlight during the winter if I work 9-5 hours, which is pretty depressing actually!

    Phyrra: I know! I found other reviews like this too... Usually Alverede products are great but maybe this is just too "loose" still?

    Sudessa: I LOVE Alverde :D Their pressed eyeshadows are great too!

    Galen: Winter is so depressing! I'm happy it's brighter now :D

    Maggi: Yep :D

    graphology: Pigmented and the colors are lovely :D

Silk Naturals mini-review, lip gloss swatches & EOTD with Charmed

I've been a customer of Silk Naturals nearly two years and the cs has always been excellent. The owner of the company is Karen and she always nice & helpful. My favorites from this company are lip glosses! Silk Naturals has both sheer and more opaque ones, my favorites are very natural ones like: Olen ollut Silk Naturals in asiakas jo lähes 2 vuotta ja asiakaspalvelu firmassa pelaa erittäin hyvin. Firman omistaa Karen, jonka mies on muuten suomalainen ;) Karen on aina vastaillut nopeasti kyselyihini. Omat suosikkini firmalta ovat huulikiillot. Näitä löytyy sekä läpikuultavia että peittävämpiä, suosikkini ovat luonnolliset sävyt kuten: 1. Foreplay (shimmery golden pink) 2. Berry Crush (golden berry, MAC Viva glam V clone) 3. Divine. Oh, my favorite and I couldn't find it from SN website :-O Eek! 4. Darling (peachie pink) These glosses are in slim tubes, I'll try lip gloss wands asap ;) I also liked solid frangrances a lot (Raspberry gingerale & Sexy Vanilla) but may...

shopping in Germany: Alverde & Alterra

Ok, I was in Germany like... in April ;) Well, I bought a lot of Alverde products from DM, the quality is excellent and the prices are VERY affordable! Just a few words about the products and a question. I LOVE Alverde shampoos & conditioners. Most of these products haven't been eco certiified before but I noticed that the Avocado series is now Natrue certified :-O Unfortunately it's not as good as it used to be... Not terrible but not great either, definitely not the product I expected it to be. Yes I know, it's certified now ;) Do you know if Alverde is planning to reformulate all of the shampoos and conditioners? If so, my suitcase will be much lighter in the future. Alverde body butter is THE BEST :D I also like the body lotions. Cranberry hand cream smells SO good... This time I tested some Alterra products from Rossmann too, I must say that I also like these a lot! I tested shampoos, hair conditioner, body lotion, hand cream etc. Just the eye makeup remov...

Mineralissima mineral makeup review

I got some products from Minerallisima for review purpose and for a giveaway :D I have so much mineral makeup that I REALLY can't buy anything anymore so it was great to test a new brand! Mineralissima's website is pleasant to browse and everything seemed very professional. Prices are affordable and so is the shipping. You can also get customer service in Finnish in this company :D And in many other lanquages as well. LOL Tästä postauksesta olisi tullut erittäin sekava kahdella kielellä, joten tällä kertaa vain englanniksi. Hyvä uutinen on se, että Mineralissiman sivut ovat myös suomeksi (ja ei todellakaan google translatella käännetyt ;D). Myös asiakaspalvelua saa Suomeksi! Sivut ovat mukavat selailla ja tuotteet myös todella laadukkaan oloiset. Voin suositella ja tilaan myöhemmin täältä lisääkin testattavaa/ täysikokoisia tuotteita :) Mineralissima foundation 1.2 gives medium (to heavy) coverage on my skin. The color is light (peachy) neutral. I love this foundation...
